Four major planets are changing signs within roughly three months. They have orbits of 165 years, 84 years, 30 years and 12 years. (We're talking about Neptune, Uranus, Saturn and Jupiter.) Furthermore, they each move forward into a new sign for a few months; then backwards to their previous sign; then forwards again to their new sign to stay. All these changes make us feel that life is moving too fast. We're overloaded, exhausted and frustrated. (Anger can arise because two of the planets are moving into Aries, which is fiery and confrontational.) The thing to know is this: you're not losing it. We're all on a merry-go-round that's accelerating! Meanwhile, in another part of the forest, Wednesday will be one of the most promising date nights of the year. Shyness will fade. People will make the first move. Count on an exciting time! Thursday and Friday are productive; and Friday evening will be another lovely time to socialize. Kiss, kiss, hug, hug. Actually, life is tragic. You're here today and here tomorrow.
This is a fast-paced week. You're making plans. Some of you are studying and learning more. Many of you are taking short trips or travelling. Most definitely - you're talking to others because you have something to say. You're ready to take the initiative and go after what you want. However, you might be frustrated because people around you aren't functioning at your level of productivity. As a result, you might be persuasive in your demands and expectations of others. Be aware that they might think you're coming on too strong. (Moi? Yes, you.) However, you're forgiven because the placement of your ruler Mars right now gives you permission to be yourself and do your own thing. Meanwhile, romance is passionate!
Good news: your ruler Venus moves into your sign this week, which will influence your manner of expressing yourself to others. You'll have a stronger desire to relate to people, which means you'll be more willing to compromise if necessary. Venus will help you make peace with everyone. Certainly, it's a great time for friends, vacations and socializing because Venus ranks pleasure above work. This is also the perfect time to buy wardrobe goodies for yourself because you'll like what you see in the mirror. Very likely, you will buy some new threads because this week, you're feeling flush. You might even see ways to boost your income? (Reward yourself for the hectic activity going on at home.)
This is a strong week for you because the Sun, your ruler Mercury, and lucky Jupiter are in your sign. This makes you bubbly, interesting, enthusiastic and keen to schmooze with others. In fact, your communication style will be strong, which is why you might want to take over and direct projects. This is a busy time for you, especially because some of you are dabbling in secret love affairs. (I'll never tell.) Respect your moneymaking ideas or attempts to explore new jobs because soon you will be getting richer, so something has to account for this boost to your assets and wealth, right? Give yourself credit for your clever ideas because it looks like your chickens are coming home to roost.
You're happy to be low-key this week and take a backseat to events because you sense that soon, your world will get a big boost - and you're right. Enjoy warm friendships. (For some, a platonic friendship will turn romantic.) You have many reasons to be proud now because your achievements are starting to bear fruit. Nevertheless, you have many responsibilities. This is a fact. However, it's also a fact that this year, you'll begin to feel more secure about yourself, and the impression you make on others. You'll gain new experiences and learn from them. People and resources will be drawn to you; and your confidence and poise will increase.
You have been blessed recently, and will continue to be blessed with fiery Mars in your sign because Mars boosts your energy and gives you drive, determination and enthusiasm for life. Make the most of this because in mid-June, Mars will move on to Virgo. But right now, it makes you dazzle! This is also a popular time for you, especially with younger people. However, this week, fair Venus is high in your chart, paving the way for excellent relations with authority figures as well. (Everyone loves you.) Very likely, you'll be asked for your creative advice on artistic matters like design, layout work, office redecorating or PR issues. New love with someone older or more established might blossom.
Once a year, the Sun sits at the top of your chart, which symbolizes that you're being thrust in a flattering spotlight. Like magic, others admire you, even if you don't do anything special. (Especially bosses, parents, teachers and VIPs.) This is why you'll be asked to take on increased responsibilities. Say yes because you will impress everyone. (Trust me.) Meanwhile travel for pleasure beckons. If you can get outta Dodge, by all means do so. This week begins with the Moon in your sign for the first two days, which will give you a slight advantage over everyone else. Why not ask the universe for a favour? See what happens?
There's a lot going on in your chart now that makes you want to travel and "get away from all this." If you can - by all means, do so. (You love a swank hotel.) However, this same influence will also bless legal and medical matters, and bring you opportunities to study and learn, which is great because you have an inquiring mind. Romance is affectionate. Plus, this is an excellent week for gifts, goodies and favours from others to come your way. On Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, the Moon is in your sign, which gives you a bit of extra good luck. This will be the perfect time to ask for a favour. Remember to schmooze Wednesday night.
Financial matters will favour you this week. This might include discussions about inheritances, or how to share or divide something. It certainly is a good time to ask for a loan or a mortgage. (If you do, be smart and check my daily Moon Alert.) Decisions about shared property and banking matters will be favourable, especially because you're ambitious about something right now. Furthermore, with Venus opposite your sign, relations with partners, close friends and members of the public are congenial and mutually affectionate. By Friday and Saturday, the Moon is in your sign giving you a slight edge over everyone else. (We like!)
Remember that you need more sleep this week because you're not getting your usual boost of energy from the Sun. Nevertheless, you'll excel at creative, intellectual work because you'll be able to convey your ideas and views of the world to others in a convincing way. In fact, you'll put considerable energy into expanding your mind, and looking for new experiences through travel or learning. Some of you might be dealing with legal matters right now. Fortunately, relations with work colleagues and coworkers are excellent. (In fact, a work-related flirtation could begin.) At the beginning of the week, you're high viz. People notice you more than usual. By midweek, your popularity is strong! Enjoy friends as well as interactions with groups.
This is a productive week for you because you're motivated to work hard. Motivation is everything: "From the thought, springs the word. From the word, springs the deed. The deed soon becomes habit; and habit eventually hardens into character. Therefore, everything begins with our thoughts." This week you want to work efficiently and effectively to get the best results for your efforts. Perhaps this is why many of you will get a raise, a promotion or find a better job. Be patient with others about confrontations, especially about shared property or shared responsibilities. Meanwhile, romance, the theatre, and social outings appeal. In fact, romance will be passionate!
This is a wonderful week because you feel playful, sociable and lighthearted! No matter how involved you are with personal responsibilities -- this week, you want to explore amusing past times, the theatre, sports events, activities with kids and fun recreational outlets. It's a great week for artists to be productive because you're imaginative, playful and in touch with your muse. You'll also enjoy redecorating at home and entertaining because you'll love interacting with others. Having said this, do be patient with partners and close friends because with Mars opposite your sign, it's easy to feel annoyed with someone. (Oops.)
Home, family and your private life continue to be your main focus this week. Family discussions will be significant. Many of you will address home repairs or discuss plans for renovations, home projects, and possible residential moves. Time spent with a parent might be important. Fortunately, with Venus in your House of Communications, you'll enjoy your everyday world, especially talking to others. Conversations will be pleasant and light. In fact, you'll be delighted by the beauty you encounter in your everyday surroundings. Take a short drive if you can. Visit a park and pleasant neighbourhoods. Enjoy your world.
